Abstract
The contribution brings findings accrued from alternative design of log-wall's lateral joint. The lateral joints present without question a thermal bridge highly repeating in the construction of external log wall. Field of the research was a theoretical design of wall models, simulation in software ANSYS and comparison theoretical results with results gained from the laboratory measurements of wall samples. Bed joints of wooden solid log walls are still a problematic detail in terms of thermal technology. By reason of weakening in the place of lateral joint and the value of coefficient of thermal conductivity, the solid wooden log wall does not meet requirements of Czech Standards ČSN 73 0540-2 posed to the value of wall's thermal resistance. That is why we have focused on measurement of surface temperature, which is also one of the classified factors in term of construction quality. The project particularly focused on monitoring of surface temperatures in the areas of critical details – bed joints.
